General building in Plymouth

Small jobs get ignored because they're awkward to schedule. That's a diary problem, not a reason.

Repairs, alterations, brickwork, roofing repairs, doors and windows, plastering, a wall that needs opening up, a lintel somebody forgot. If it's building work in the South West, ask us.

You'll get the same treatment as a full extension: a proper look, a written price, a day we're coming, and a phone call if anything changes.

If the job needs a specialist we don't have, we'll say so and point you at the right trade rather than have a go and hope.

The general building jobs we take on

Ask about anything not listed

Brickwork and repointing

Garden walls, rebuilds, matched brick repairs and repointing in the right mortar for the wall's age.

Structural openings and lintels

New openings, failed lintels and the crack above the window that has been getting slowly worse.

Roof repairs and rainwater goods

Slipped slates, flashings, ridge and verge work, plus gutters and downpipes, which cause most damp calls.

Doors and windows

Replacements, new openings, thresholds and making good so it does not look like something was cut in.

Plastering and making good

Skimming, patching, rendering and the tidy-up after somebody else's electrician.

Property maintenance and snagging

Landlord and homeowner lists worked through in one visit, with a written price before we start.

The honest bit

Small jobs, same process

Small work gets ignored because it is hard to slot between big jobs and easy to under-price. We hold time in the diary for it deliberately. You get a look, a written price and a date, exactly like a full extension, and if we cannot get to you for a few weeks we say that instead of going quiet.

We also cover landlord and letting maintenance around Plymouth, where the useful thing is usually one visit, one list and one invoice rather than four trades and four no-shows.
